Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 1993 - 469: Dharma Ba: You, Melt God 1st Evolution vs. 2nd Evolution

"Yes, you are repaying a favor. You are repaying Tuotuo’s favor, giving him a chance to gain more power, satisfying his desires for power, but you have also caused much trouble for your master, trapping him in a whirlpool of torment and ruin."

"You’re so noble, you’re remarkable indeed, repaying your own favor, making you seem loyal and righteous. But you are making your master pay the price for your actions. Is it your master’s deserved punishment? Aren’t you just generous with someone else’s resources, making your master foot the bill for your affairs?"

"Simply put, aren’t you just using your master to repay debts? Do you even consider yourself human?"

Chen Jie looked at Dharma Ba and said, "I despise you!"

Chen Jie’s words were piercing, as Dharma Ba had unlimited admiration and reverence for his master, the Living Buddha. He didn’t want his master to suffer any grievance because of him. Unexpectedly, today, he was cursed by Chen Jie, like a dog covered in blood.

The most horrifying part was that he couldn’t refute it, because what Chen Jie said indeed existed. He truly might drag his master into a quagmire.

If it really came to that, he would be beyond redemption, even a hundred times over.

However, Dharma Ba didn’t want to be led by the nose by Chen Jie, so he began to argue, "Chen Jiusi, don’t exaggerate the matter. I’m just killing Hama; how would that drag my master into the mud? Even if killing Hama really offends the Noble Group, for someone like Tuotuo, settling the Noble Group shouldn’t be difficult. There might be some pain at that time, but it definitely won’t lead to any so-called internal chaos within the Daqian."

Dharma Ba looked at Chen Jie and said, "Moreover, once Tuotuo completely unifies the court, there won’t be so many internal disagreements within the Daqian Court. This shouldn’t be a trouble for the Daqian, but rather an obvious opportunity for reform. It would allow the entire court to thrive!"

"In this way, I’m not pulling my master down, but rather helping my master!"

Dharma Ba looked at Chen Jie and said. Chen Jie listened to this and looked at him, saying, "Hmm, you are quite right. With Tuotuo’s governance ability, achieving unity within the court should be no issue. But have you considered one thing?"

Dharma Ba looked at Chen Jie in confusion, "What thing?"

Chen Jie replied, "Matters within the court are easily resolved; the power of the Noble Group indeed isn’t as strong as it was during the founding era. But Dharma Ba, don’t forget that Tuotuo’s ultimate goal is not just the unification of the court, but the reduction of vassals!"

"His real opponents are the Vassal Kings throughout the Daqian!"

"Do you think he will complete the reduction of vassals so easily? Will the vassal kings across the land obediently allow him to reduce them?"

Chen Jie looked at Dharma Ba and said, "Honestly, if all the vassal kings of Daqian were like Ruyang King, then your actions wouldn’t matter much, and Tuotuo wouldn’t face major resistance in reducing vassals."

"But don’t forget, among the vassal kings is Li Siqi, and you should know what kind of person he is better than I do. If Tuotuo assumes power and strongly reduces vassals, do you think Li Siqi would dare to unite many vassal kings across the land and march to the capital to aid the throne, to purge the side of the monarch?"

Upon hearing this, Dharma Ba gasped in shock. Under the turbulent circumstances of Daqian, if the vassal kings marched to the capital to purge the side of the monarch, it would definitely be a move that could lead to the downfall of the Daqian.

How would his master handle himself then?

And this entire chain of events could potentially be caused by him. Thinking of this, Dharma Ba hesitated.

Chen Jie did not urge him at this moment, but simply looked at him and said, "The situation has been clearly explained to you, Dharma Ba, you must carefully consider it, because if you make a wrong choice, there is no medicine for regret!"

Chen Jie looked at Dharma Ba and said, Dharma Ba hesitated all of a sudden.

After a long time, Dharma Ba lifted his head and looked at Chen Jie, saying, "Hama can leave, but today you must stay!"

"Avenge the apprentice’s vendetta cannot be neglected!"

Dharma Ba looked at Chen Jie, his gaze turned blood-red. It was evident true anger had arisen. Chen Jie did not show much reaction upon seeing Dharma Ba like this but smiled slightly, "Okay, then let Hama and the others leave!"

At this time, Dharma Ba stepped back and made way.

Seeing Dharma Ba make way, Chen Jie at this time said to Wang Baobao and the others behind him, "Thank Master Dharma Ba for understanding the situation."

As he spoke, he gave Wang Baobao and the others a meaningful look, and Wang Baobao instantly understood, immediately stepping back to make way.

Following this, the group directly routed forward. Throughout the whole process, Chen Jie kept his gaze fixed on Dharma Ba, fearing he might suddenly alter his strategy. Fortunately, Dharma Ba’s integrity was decent.

Chen Jie did not move; he knew he couldn’t escape the battle with Dharma Ba.

He turned back to look at the slowly advancing group, and among them, Zhao Ya, mixed within, looked over here with great concern. Chen Jie nodded slightly at her, signaling her not to worry.

But how could Zhao Ya not worry? Chen Jiusi’s actions today were entirely for her sake, if not for her, why would he take such risks by staying behind? The Melt God First Turn against the Molten God Second Transition, anyone would know he certainly wouldn’t win.

Yet Chen Jie remained behind, and it was all for her sake. Thinking of this, Zhao Ya deeply remembered Chen Jie’s intentions.

However, she also knew that staying behind wouldn’t help Chen Jie in any way, and could even become a burden. So in the end, she could only leave with the group.

The group walked quite a distance, and this time, the figure of Dharma Ba and his group was entirely out of sight. Hama sighed in relief, noticing the low spirits among Wang Baobao and others, and said, "We don’t have to worry too much; Brother Jiu Si, having chosen to stay behind, definitely has confidence!"
